This was such a great fun Campaign to direct and shoot too !
Back in the Bahrain days!

This one of my favourite images from this series …

Had to wait and time this ...
to use the evening ambience for lighting for this shot …

Long-exposure shot, used ambient tungsten-light from the desk lamp, mixed with mono-block flash and used the mono-block flashes halogen-modelling-lights too!

Great creative fun
and an amazingly fun client ...
that gave total creative freedom 😎

This image was published in print form and on billboards …
with just the Zoë logo and the phone number set on
black-background , placed to the right-side of the image! 😎
